World of Warcraft Legion Patch 7.1 Will Offer Alt Reputation Improvements; New Hotfixes October 5

World of Warcraft Legion patch 7.1 will feature several reputation improvements for alts. New hotfixes for the live version of Legion are inbound as well.

On the official Blizzard World of Warcraft forums, community manager Ornyx announced that some changes will be made in Legion patch 7.1 to help with reputation requirements for alt characters.

Reputation will not be made account-wide, no, but we will be easing a couple of linked features with 7.1.

First, Court of Stars and The Arcway will now unlock account-wide once each individual dungeon is completed once on an account.

Second, World Quests will no longer have the “friendly” reputation unlock requirement for secondary/alt characters. Once you hit 110 on an alt, you will immediately receive a quest to speak with Khadgar to receive your Flight Master’s Whistle and unlock World Quests, as long as you’ve already unlocked World Quests on your main.

Blizzard also announced a new branch of hotfixes (October 5th) for Legion. As always, some of the fixes will take effect immediately, while others require a scheduled realm restart (weekly maintenance):
